Q:

Rolling friction is caused by ____ from the following?

A) Non-elastic effects B) Gravity
C) Power dissipation D) Buoyancy
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) Non-elastic effects

Explanation:

Rolling friction or rolling drag is the force resisting the motion when a body rolls on a surface. It is mainly caused by non-elastic effects, that is, not all the energy needed for deformation of the wheel, roadbed, etc... is recovered when the pressure is removed.

Another cause of rolling resistance lies in the slippage between the wheel and the surface, which dissipates energy.

A) GSLV-Mark-II B) GSLV-Mark-III
C) GSLV-Mark-IV D) GSLV-Mark-V
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) GSLV-Mark-III

Explanation:

India’s first indigenously designed and developed high thrust cryogenic rocket engine generating a nominal thrust of 19 tonnes was successfully endurance hot tested for a duration of 800 seconds on July 16, 2015 at ISRO Propulsion Complex, Mahendragiri.

 

The engine will be used for powering the Cryogenic stage (C25), the upper stage of the next generation GSLV Mark-III launch vehicle of ISRO, capable of launching four tonne class satellites.

 

This cryogenic engine of C25 Stage operates on Gas Generator Cycle using extremely low temperature propellants – Liquid Hydrogen (LH2) at 20 Kelvin (-253 deg C) and Liquid Oxygen (LOX) at 80K (-193 deg C).
